Jylhä to build new cargo terminal in Germany

We have acquired a plot near Travemünde harbor in the
city of Lübeck. The plan is to start building during the spring 2015
says Pekka Jylhä, CEO.

The terminal will be a new hub for the flow of
goods coming in from Germany, Netherlands and Denmark, where it can be
combined more efficiently into trucks destined for Finland. Export from
Finland will be served by the new terminal in the same way. There will
be cold storage facilities in which tempered goods can be stored
temporarily for example long hauls from southern Europe destined to
Finland can be reloaded onto new trucks in this facility. For the
drivers there will be a sauna, kitchen, utility areas for washing of
clothes, resting and socializing. Separate rooms for the drivers rest
and good sleep. The terminal is planned to be in operation by end of
2015.

The address of the new terminal will be in Kohlenmühle, Kücknitz
in Lübeck. Distance to Travemünde is only 6,7 kilometres and the
motorway 2,4 kilometres. As coordinator for this project and our
expansion plans in Germany, we have founded a subsidiary to our parent
company named O.Jylhä Logistik GmbH.
